• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR368 - ConvExits inconsistent for field and InfoObject: &(&) - &(&) ?

  The SAP error message RSAR368 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the conversion exits for a specific field and InfoObject in the context of data transfer, typically when dealing with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) systems. This error often arises during data extraction or loading processes, particularly when the system is trying to convert data from one format to another.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Conversion Exits: The conversion exit defined for the InfoObject does not match the data type or format of the source field. This can happen if the InfoObject has been modified or if the source data structure has changed.
  Missing or Incorrect Configuration: The conversion exit might not be properly configured in the system, or it may not exist at all for the specified InfoObject.
  Data Type Mismatch: The data type of the source field may not be compatible with the expected data type of the target InfoObject.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Conversion Exits: Verify the conversion exit assigned to the InfoObject in the SAP BW system. You can do this by navigating to the InfoObject definition in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  Consistency Check: Ensure that the conversion exit is consistent with the data type of the source field. If necessary, adjust the conversion exit or the data type of the InfoObject.
  Reassign Conversion Exit: If the conversion exit is missing or incorrect, you may need to reassign the correct conversion exit to the InfoObject.
  Data Source Configuration: Review the data source configuration to ensure that it is correctly set up to match the InfoObject's requirements.
  Testing: After making changes, perform a test data load to ensure that the issue is resolved.
